WBR) Raheem Sterling
The young winger has been excellent in recent weeks, and could be deployed in a right wing-back formation against Hull. Although his attacking instincts would normally stop him from playing this role, Liverpool will be expected to dominate Hull, so fielding Sterling here shouldn’t be too much of a problem.
WBL) Glen Johnson
If Sterling plays from the right, regular right-back Johnson could switch to the left, where he has proved on countless occasions that he is more than capable of playing. Johnson’s left foot is strong, and he should have no problem at Anfield on New Year’s Day.
